The reaction given is:

4Ga + P4 ---> 4GaP

The oxidation number of the reactants is zero, because they are pure elements.

The P in compounds may have oxidation states 3- or 5-. Gallium may only have oxidation state 3+.

Then, to be neutral in GaP the oxidation states are 3+ for Ga and 3- for P.

And the transference of electrons can be see in this oxidation - reduction equations:

Ga (0) - 3 e-    ----> Ga (3+)

P (0) + 3e- ---> P (3-)

So, for one formula unit, 3 electrons have been transfered from each Ga atom to P atom to form one GaP unit.

Answer: 3 electrons.

b. increase in surface area

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Speeding up a chemical reaction

Required

Factors used to speed up reactions

Solution

There are several factors that influence reaction kinetics :  

1. Concentration  

2. Surface area  

3. Temperature  

4. Catalyst  

5. Pressure  

6. Stirring  

Temperature is related to the kinetic energy of the particles. Heat is absorbed causes the particles of matter to move faster so that the reaction can take place faster

The enlarged surface area of the reactants causes more particles to react with other particles.

50 g square block of sulfur can be broken into small pieces or powdered so that more particles come into contact with each other

Please help me with my 8th grade chemistry, I'm behind and don't understand it at all
padilas [110]

When a material is heated, the kinetic energy of that material increases and its atoms and molecules move about more. This means that each atom will take up more space due to its movement so the material will expand. ... Some metals expand more than others due to differences in the forces between the atoms / molecules.
